put a ratchet strap around the center of the tire and crank it down, start adding air, it should bead back up.

old schooler 4x4 trick #2

Old school, yet dangerous/fun, starter fluid inside the tire and toss a match at the tire.

Saw it on TV when they run low tire pressure (3-4 psi) on the artic ice.

Rock crawlers do it also.


That episode was awsome. They built up those 4 runners to go out on the artic. The crevis bar in the front really does work wonders.
